All bad/evil things in the world are often depicted as an entity with horns and hoofs - the Devil. Half man and half goat. Kung kinsay nakakita sa movie nga Pick of Destiny or sa video sa Tribute to the Greatest Song in the World sa Tenacious D would know what I mean.
All things that are good and 'pure' was sometimes depicted as sheeps because sheeps are commonly white and are tamed.
But as we all know, the world of spirituality is loaded with symolisms. So one does not need to take them literally.
But unfortunately, its one of the defense mechanisms of desperate spiritualists though...Haaays...'Close-minded' jud sila sometimes...
